Landau Roof
A v a i l a b l e o n " 7 5 " L i m o u s i n e o r S e d a n
For a formal appearance of unmatched distinc-
tion a Landau Roof option is offered on the
Fleetwood " 7 5 " . In this treatment the upper
rear quarters are blocked in, the roof padded
and vinyl covered, a fully chromed Landau B o w
applied to each side and the rear w i n d o w size
reduced.
Other options that may be specified are:
1. Omit Landau Bows
2. Retain regular rear window size
Exterior ornamentation includes a FLEETWOOD
plaque on the vinyl upper rear quarters and a
wreath and crest on the lower quarters. The
wreath and crest also appears on the lower rear
quarters of standard " 7 5 " cars.
A Padded Roof only may be ordered by mark-
ing a top color number under TOP o n the order
form.
Firemist Colors
E x t r a C h a r g e A l l B o d y S t y l e s
Five Firemist colors are offered o n all body styles
at extra charge.
Each of the Firemist options is distinctive and
reflects a strong primary color value in its
category.
Firemist color code numbers start w i t h 9 and
may be ordered by marking the number in the
regular color space on the order form.
Usually, there is no procurement delay in order-
ing any of these regular production Firemist colors.
Two-tone exterior color combinations are not
available as the body styling does not provide
a separation of roof and upper rear quarters
from the lower panels.
Except on the Calais series, a t w o - t o n e appear-
ance may be obtained by ordering a Vinyl
Roof in a contrasting color from one of the
six options.
Special Colors
Past model or non-standard colors can be
supplied on special order at extra charge.
To order type 00 in COLOR space on order form
which denotes that color is not a standard
option.
In space captioned SPECIAL EXTERIOR COLOR
describe color by name and model year, e.g.
1964 Lime, 1959 Seminole Red, etc.
Allow four to five weeks for shipment of any
special color.
Orders for past model colors are matched in
current high gloss acrylic materials. The previous
color, especially if it is a few years old may have
been formulated with now obsolete pigments.
The newer chemicals have improved color re-
tention and durability. However, they could
produce a variance in appearance between the
newer and older color.
This is a matter of information that may be of
special interest to fleet owners w h o add new
cars in the original fleet colors and have noticed
a difference in their older and newer vehicles.
